Miller® TurboLite™ Edge Personal Fall Limiter

When The Job Takes You to the Edge: Depend on Miller

Do You Know Where Your Edges Are?

In work sites of every variety, edges are much more common than people realize – and they may pose a greater risk than you’d expect. Whether you’re laying roofing, traversing a beam, or simply working near the unprotected sides of an upper floor, falls over an edge are more hazardous than other falls. Without protection designed for edges, traditional lifelines risk being severed and the force upon the worker in the event of a fall is significantly increased. Honeywell estimates that as many as 80% of fall-protection users have applications in which a lifeline will come in contact with an edge in the event of a fall.

Edges in Fall Protection Applications

Sharp Edge Applications ≥ 0.005 in (0.13 mm)

Smooth Edge Applications ≥ 0.060 in (1.5 mm)

ANSI’s New Standard for Safety

As awareness of this threat grows, new safety standards have been defined. The most stringent is ANSI Z359.14-2014 LE (Leading Edge), which requires leading-edge protection to meet criteria such as:

  • Edge radius as sharp as 0.005 in (0.13 mm)
  • Safe for users connected at foot level
  • Requires an integral shock-absorber at the worker connection

Honeywell Has Your Back: The Miller TurboLite™ Edge Series

Honeywell’s extensive series of Miller TurboLite Personal Fall Limiters (PFLs) is even more versatile with the introduction of the TurboLite Edge Series. Whether you work in construction, industrial, or even wind power, units for sharp and smooth edges including options for tie-back applications will help you ensure workers are safe in applications requiring foot-level tieoff or work near edges.
